Lance armstrong biking over 40 miles in one day would be considered muscular strength. true or false

Physics

True.

Reason:

Muscular strength is the maximum force exerted by a muscle against some form of resistance.

In this example, lance Armstrong is continuously working against the gravitational force. Thus, it can be considered as muscular strength.

A capacitor with initial charge q0 is discharged through a resistor. a) In terms of the time constant τ, how long is required fo

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

It would take $\tau(\ln 9 - \ln 8)$ time for the capacitor to discharge from $q_0$ to $\displaystyle \frac{8}{9} \, q_0$ .

It would take $\tau(\ln 9 - \ln 7)$ time for the capacitor to discharge from $q_0$ to $\displaystyle \frac{7}{9}\, q_0$ .

Note that $\ln 9 = 2\,\ln 3$ , and that $\ln 8 = 3\, \ln 2$ .

Explanation:

In an RC circuit, a capacitor is connected directly to a resistor. Let the time constant of this circuit is $\tau$ , and the initial charge of the capacitor be $q_0$ . Then at time $t$ , the charge stored in the capacitor would be:

$\displaystyle q(t) = q_0 \, e^{-t / \tau}$ .

$\displaystyle q(t) = \left(1 - \frac{1}{9}\right) \, q_0 = \frac{8}{9}\, q_0$ .

Apply the equation $\displaystyle q(t) = q_0 \, e^{-t / \tau}$ :

$\displaystyle \frac{8}{9}\, q_0 = q_0 \, e^{-t/\tau}$ .

The goal is to solve for $t$ in terms of $\tau$ . Rearrange the equation:

$\displaystyle e^{-t/\tau} = \frac{8}{9}$ .

Take the natural logarithm of both sides:

$\displaystyle \ln\, e^{-t/\tau} = \ln \frac{8}{9}$ .

$\displaystyle -\frac{t}{\tau} = \ln 8 - \ln 9$ .

$t = - \tau \, \left(\ln 8 - \ln 9\right) = \tau(\ln 9 - \ln 8)$ .

$\displaystyle q(t) = \left(1 - \frac{1}{9}\right) \, q_0 = \frac{7}{9}\, q_0$ .

Apply the equation $\displaystyle q(t) = q_0 \, e^{-t / \tau}$ :

$\displaystyle \frac{7}{9}\, q_0 = q_0 \, e^{-t/\tau}$ .

The goal is to solve for $t$ in terms of $\tau$ . Rearrange the equation:

$\displaystyle e^{-t/\tau} = \frac{7}{9}$ .

Take the natural logarithm of both sides:

$\displaystyle \ln\, e^{-t/\tau} = \ln \frac{7}{9}$ .

$\displaystyle -\frac{t}{\tau} = \ln 7 - \ln 9$ .

$t = - \tau \, \left(\ln 7 - \ln 9\right) = \tau(\ln 9 - \ln 7)$ .

A wheel of radius R, mass M, and moment of inertia I is mounted on a frictionless, horizontal axles. A light cord wrapped around

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

$\alpha =\frac{m*g*R}{I-m*R^2}$

$a = \frac{m*g*R^2}{I-m*R^2}$

$T=\frac{I*m*g}{I-m*R^2}$

Explanation:

By analyzing the torque on the wheel we get:

$T*R=I*\alpha$ Solving for T: $T=I/R*\alpha$

On the object:

$T-m*g = -m*a$ Replacing our previous value for T:

$I/R*\alpha-m*g = -m*a$

The relation between angular and linear acceleration is:

$a=\alpha*R$

So,

$I/R*\alpha-m*g = -m*\alpha*R$

Solving for α:

$\alpha =\frac{R*m*g}{I+m*R^2}$

The linear acceleration will be:

$a =\frac{R^2*m*g}{I+m*R^2}$

And finally, the tension will be:

$T =\frac{I*m*g}{I+m*R^2}$

These are the values of all the variables: α, a, T

What is the function of the electron transport chain in cellular respiration. why is oxygen needed for the electron transport ch

SpyIntel [72]

1) <span>The function of the electron transport chain is to pump protons in the mitochondrion inter-membrane, thus building up a proton gradient. This gradient will allow the ATP syntheses</span><span>.</span>

2) Why we need oxygen for the electron transport chain:
At the end of the electron transport chain is the Oxygen that will accept electrons and picks up protons to form water. If the oxygen molecule is not there the electron transport chain will stop running, and ATP will no longer be produced. Basically, we need the oxygen to produce more ATP.
